< Psalm 83 >

1 [Psalm lal Asaph] O God, nik kom misla, Nik kom sukas ac tia sramsram.
“A psalm of Asaph.” O God! keep not silence! Hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God!
2 Liye! Mwet lokoalok lom elos alein, Ac elos su srungakom elos orek fohs.
For, lo! thine enemies roar, And they who hate thee lift up their heads.
3 Elos orek pwapa lukma in lain mwet lom; Elos pwapa in lainulos su kom karingin.
For they form secret plots against thy people, And consult together against thy chosen ones.
4 Elos fahk, “Fahsru, lela kut in kunausla mutunfacl selos, Tuh inen Israel in mulkinyukla nwe tok.”
“Come,” say they, “let us blot them out from the number of the nations, That the name of Israel may no more be remembered!”
5 Elos insese ke pwapa lalos Ac tukeni orala oakwuk se in lain kom.
With one consent they consult together, Against thee do they form a league, —
6 Elos mwet Edom ac mwet Ishmael, Mwet Moab ac mwet Hagar,
The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Of Moab and the Hagarenes,
7 Mwet Gebal, Ammon ac Amalek, Ac mwet Philistia ac Tyre.
Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, The Philistines, with the inhabitants of Tyre.
8 Mwet Assyria oayapa welulosyang, Elos arulana asruoki ku nu sin mwet Ammon ac mwet Moab, su ma in fwil natul Lot.
The Assyrians also are joined with them; They lend their strength to the children of Lot.
9 Oru nu selos oana kom tuh oru nu sin mwet Midian, Ac nu sel Sisera ac Jabin sisken Infacl Kishon.
Do to them as to the Midianites, As to Sisera, as to Jabin at the brook Kison,
10 Kom kutangulosla in acn Endor, Ac manolos kulawi fin fohk uh.
Who perished at Endor, And were trampled like dung to the earth.
11 Oru nu sin mwet kol lalos oana kom tuh oru nu sel Oreb ac Zeeb. Kutangla mwet kol lalos nukewa, oana ma sikyak nu sel Zebah ac Zalmunna,
Make their chiefs like Oreb and Zeeb; Yea, all their princes as Zeba and Zalmunna!
12 Su tuh fahk, “Acn inge, su ma lun God, Kut ac eisla lasr.”
Who say, “Let us seize on God's habitations!”
13 O God, siseloselik oana kutkut — Oana kulun wheat su ukukla ke eng uh.
Make them, O my God! like whirling chaff; Like stubble before the wind!
14 In oana ke e uh esukak insak uh, Ac furreak eol uh,
As fire consumeth the forest, And as flame setteth the mountains in a blaze,
15 Ukwalosyak ke paka lom, Ac aksangengyalos ke eng upa lom.
So pursue them with thy tempest, And terrify them with thy storm!
16 O LEUM GOD, afinya mutalos ke mwekin, Ac oru tuh elos in akfulatye ku lom.
Cover their faces with shame, That they may seek thy name, O LORD!
17 Lela elos in kutangyukla ac sangengla nwe tok. Lela misa lalos in sie mwe mwekin lulap.
Let them be confounded! Yea, let them be put to shame, and perish!
18 Lela elos in etu lah kom mukena pa LEUM GOD— Kom pa Leum fulatlana fin faclu nufon.
That they may know that thy name alone is Jehovah; That thou art the Most High over all the earth.
